By transferring assets first to BTTC and then to the target chain, you will be able to circulate your assets freely across TRON, Ethereum, and BSC. We will guide you through every step of the cross-chain transfer to make it a hassle-free experience for you.
Currently, BitTorrent Bridge supports the cross-chain transfer of BTT, TRX, JST, NFT, SUN, USDD, and WIN. Please make sure you have connected to the wallet of the corresponding network before starting a cross-chain transfer. You can refer to Connect Your Wallet for more guides.
Please follow the steps below while your wallet is connected:
Step 1: Fill in the basic info
Choose one network each under "From" and "To" from TRON, Ethereum, and BSC. Let's take the cross-chain transfer from TRON to BSC as an example here.
Choose the token you want to transfer and enter the amount. You will see the amount of the token you will receive.
Select a mode for this transfer. BitTorrent Bridge offers you three modes to transfer assets cross-chain: Manual Receive, Auto Receive, and Auto Receive + Gas Top-up. The three modes differ in the amount of assets you will receive, required steps, and gas fee. You may choose the one that best suits your needs. The Auto Receive mode supports most tokens on BTTC. You can change the cross-chain mode before Step 2 is completed.
Here are the main differences of the three modes:
- For Manual Receive, your cross-chain asset will arrive in full, but please make sure that you have sufficient funds to pay the fee and receive the asset manually on the target chain.
- For Auto Receive, the decentralized Relayer service will help you receive the asset and pay the gas fee needed for receiving the asset. A small amount of your cross-chain asset will be deducted to pay for the service.
- For Auto Receive + Gas Top-up, the decentralized Relayer service will help you receive the asset and pay the gas fee needed for receiving the asset. In addition, a small amount of tokens will be sent to your receiving address to top up your gas, which can be used to cover the costs of transferring asset out or participating in on-chain projects on the target chain. A small amount of your cross-chain asset will be deducted to pay for the service.
Now, enter the receiving address or use the connected address.
- The address of your connected wallet of the receiving network is the default receiving address.
- You may also switch on "Use another address" to enter or paste the receiving address. Please make sure you are entering the correct address as you are unable to edit or cancel the transaction once it is initiated.
Step 2: Initiate the transfer
A BitTorrent Bridge-powered cross-chain transfer requires three separate transactions to complete:
- Transfer asset from the sending network to BTTC;
- Transfer asset from BTTC to the receiving network;
- Receive asset on the receiving network.
Auto Receive is available when the token to be transferred and the transfer amount meet the requirement. In this mode, you only need to complete the first two transactions as a Relayer will help you execute the third one.
Manual Receive
Select "Manual Receive", click "Bridge", and check the estimated time and gas fee required in the "Transaction Preview". Then, click "Continue" to view the transaction details.
Click "Confirm" after you have confirmed the transaction details, and sign in your wallet to initiate the transaction.
The cross-chain transaction will be initiated after you sign in your wallet. Then, you will see the estimated time for the asset to arrive. It is estimated to take up to 8 minutes for asset to be transferred from TRON/BSC to BTTC and 18 minutes from Ethereum to BTTC.
Click "Close & Process Later" to close this window. You can track the status of this transaction in "Bridge Records", which can be found in the top right corner of the page.
You can also visit the Bridge Records page to view this transaction.
After the asset arrives at your receiving address on BTTC, you can find the transaction in "Notifications" in the top right corner of the page. Then, click "Process" to view the details. Click "Confirm" after you have confirmed the transaction details, and sign in your MetaMask wallet under the BTTC Network to initiate the transaction.
The cross-chain transaction will be initiated after you sign in MetaMask. Then, you will see the estimated time of arrival. You will have to wait for validators to sync checkpoints that contain this transaction to the receiving network. It takes about 30 minutes for each checkpoint to arrive, but it may take longer in case of network congestion.
Click "Close & Process Later" to close the window and wait for the checkpoints to arrive. You can track the status of this transaction in "Bridge Records", which can be found in the top right corner of the page.
You can also visit the Bridge Records page to view this transaction.
After the checkpoints arrive, you can find the transaction in "Notifications" in the top right corner of the page. Then, click "Receive" to receive your asset.
Once you sign the transaction in your wallet, the cross-chain transaction is complete. Your asset will arrive at your receiving address, and the balance of the address will be updated.
Auto Receive
Auto Receive is available when the token to be transferred and the transfer amount meet the requirement.
You only need to start the following two transactions in this mode:
- Transfer your asset from the sending network to BTTC
- Transfer your asset from BTTC to the receiving network
The Relayer service will help you receive the asset on the receiving network. All you need to do is pay a specific amount of the transferring asset to compensate the Relayer for the gas fee spent. You may click on the drop-down list to view the charges of different Relayers and choose the one you see fit.
After confirming the transaction details, click "Bridge", and check the estimated time and gas fee required in the "Transaction Preview" window. Then, click "Continue" to view the transaction details.

In addition, a small amount of tokens will be sent to your receiving address to top up your gas, which can be used to cover the costs of transferring asset out or participating in on-chain projects on the target chain.
